Who are you?

My real name is Oliver, though I prefer to go by Dzedou on the interwebz. I'm 25 and live in Copenhagen.

I like to make games, play games, surf the internet, and rarely make music, paint, write, or other quirky artsy stuff.

As far as things that don't involve sitting in shrimp posture in front of a computer screen go, I mostly do climbing and the occassional running.

I also like languages and speak a few of them (sorted by proficiency, descending):

What do you do?

If you couldn't tell from my posts, some time ago I burnt out heavily after an abusive relationship with web development, which made me decide to do something I actually enjoy doing - game development.

I can do and enjoy most parts of game development, but I specialize heavily in the low-level programming side of things: engine development, rendering, shaders, dev tools, all the fun stuff. Since I failed my first attempt at making it as an indie, I'm currently instead doing a gamedev Master's degree :)

Besides that and trying to make as many games as I can, I am in the process of finding a low maintenance braindead job on the side. Those who experienced burnout before probably know why.

What is this website about?

Nothing, really. I just introduce myself and write down my thoughts about philosophy, programming, game development, or any other topic that I might think of in the future.

I am also trying to maintain one of the few places on the internet that are fast and don't have any ads, pop-ups or other forms of ruining your day.

Links?

Biovoid, my only Steam release

My itch.io, where I post small prototypes

My Soundcloud, where I rarely post my own songs and more often repost other people's cool songs

I also have YouTube and Twitter accounts but I don't post on either. Maybe I will at some point, so follow me if you want
